Assessment and priorities
A review of your release process, infrastructure configuration and operational pain points, with findings ranked by impact, effort and risk.
Founder-led DevOps consulting
DevOps consulting for infrastructure your team can operate.
Anrotex helps engineering teams improve releases, cloud reliability and infrastructure efficiency. Start with the bottleneck, agree a practical scope, and leave with changes your team understands.
Free initial consultation · Scope agreed before implementation
When outside DevOps help is useful
For startups, growing product teams and established engineering organizations with a specific delivery or infrastructure problem. We work alongside the people who will own the system afterwards.
- Releases require manual work or depend on one engineer.
- Infrastructure differs between environments and is hard to reproduce.
- Cloud spend or capacity grows without a clear link to demand.
- Incidents reveal gaps in monitoring, access or recovery procedures.
What your team receives
An assessment can stand alone. For implementation, we agree which of these deliverables belong in your project before making changes.
Infrastructure as Code
Scoped Terraform changes in your repositories, with a review of state management, environment differences and the process for approving infrastructure changes.
Release and recovery workflows
Version-controlled pipeline changes, deployment checks and documented recovery steps for the applications included in the engagement.
Workload and cloud efficiency
Recommendations tied to workload demand, capacity and cloud spend. Each proposed change includes the operational tradeoffs and evidence needed to validate it.
Observability and access controls
A review of service signals, actionable alerts, runbooks and deployment permissions, focused on the failure modes your team needs to detect and resolve.
Validation and handover
Testing against your agreed requirements, clear documentation of the changes, and a walkthrough so your engineers can operate the system.
Choose where to start
CI/CD automation
For slow builds, fragile releases and recovery gaps. Review pipeline deliverables and the implementation process.
Kubernetes consulting
For pending pods, unstable autoscaling or inefficient node capacity. See the cluster review scope and evidence needed.
AWS cost optimization
For unexplained spend and idle capacity. See how an audit connects potential savings with operational risk.
How the engagement works
- 01
Understand the current system
Walk through a recent release or incident together. Review architecture, relevant configuration and operating data to identify where assistance would help.
- 02
Plan the work together
Choose the priorities, repositories and environments. Agree what will be delivered, how it will be tested, and the access, pricing and timeline before work starts.
- 03
Implement in controlled steps
Review changes with your engineers, validate in an agreed test environment and plan production changes with explicit recovery steps.
- 04
Measure and transfer ownership
Compare results with the starting baseline. Leave configuration, runbooks and next steps with the team; scope any continuing support separately.
Measure improvement against your baseline
Agree which measures matter: release lead time, failed deployments, recovery time, service reliability or cost per workload. Compare similar workloads and periods, and record tradeoffs alongside results.

Questions before an engagement
What does DevOps consulting include?
The engagement can cover an assessment, CI/CD, Terraform, Kubernetes, cloud cost efficiency, observability and access controls. We build the project around your priorities and agree which services and deliverables you need.
Can we start with an assessment only?
Yes. An assessment produces findings and a prioritized improvement plan. Implementation is separately scoped, so your team can choose which recommendations to take forward and who will deliver them.
What access will you need?
Start with architecture context, relevant configuration and release or incident history. Redacted exports or a walkthrough can support discovery. We agree the minimum permissions needed for each stage; an assessment does not require blanket production write access.
Do you work with our existing tools and cloud provider?
Yes. We work with AWS, Google Cloud and Azure environments, including Terraform, Kubernetes and existing CI/CD tooling. We confirm the services and tooling in scope before work begins. A platform migration is a separate decision.
How are pricing, timing and ongoing support agreed?
The initial consultation is free. Pricing and timing depend on the environments, dependencies, access and validation required. Implementation and ongoing support have an agreed scope; continuous monitoring or 24/7 incident response is not automatically included.
